Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't

mean they don't love you with all that they have.




Jim and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital. One day while

they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Jim suddenly jumped

into the deep end.



He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. Edna promptly jumped

in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Jim out.



When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Edna's heroic act, she

immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now

considered her mentally stable.



She went to tell Edna the news: 'Edna, I have good news and bad news.

The good news is you're being discharged. Since you were able to

rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of

another patient, I have concluded that your act displays sound judgment

and that you have a sound mind.



The bad news is Jim, the patient you saved, hanged himself in the

bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him. I am so

sorry, but he's dead.'



Edna replied, 'He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry. How soon

can I go home?'
